Ahhh... not.. well, yes, but not in the areas of fighting someone, that's not really something I'm very good at. But if you stack the deck too much in your foe's favor, then the results may be worse than simply embarrassing for you.

...Why not begin with even footing, and work your way up to challenging him at full power? That would give the both of you a learning experience. You would learn over time how to fight him, and he too would learn to fight you, forcing both of you to grow in skill to overcome each other with each conflict that arises.
